How to Register PS3 Wireless Guitars

"Rock Band" and "Guitar Hero" have soared in popularity since late 2005; each allows players to use controllers in the shape of guitars and play along with music. "Guitar Hero 3" introduced the first controllers to be free of wires, allowing for much more movement and letting players rock out from any distance. The PlayStation 3 isn&'t capable of reading the wireless function from the guitars by itself; it requires the use of a dongle, which comes with the guitars.

  Insert the dongle into one of the USB ports. These are located in front of the PS3 console. If a red light appears on the dongle, it is properly connected.

  Press the button on the dongle if the light blinks or does not turn on. When the guitar is not connected, the light will blink; when the guitar is connected, it will be a solid red.

  Press the button on the guitar that says "PS" on it. Notice the red light on the guitar begin to flash as it searches for the dongle. When both lights are solid red, the guitar has been registered by the console.
